Overview

Property Details

Updated: Nov 11, 2014

House, 2 Bedrooms, 3 Baths, 5 Sleeps

There is a reason this place is called Fisherman's Paradise. Your boat is docked just steps from your back door and just a few houses down from the open ocean. After a great day on the water, you can relax in this newly updated keys stilt home with a gourmet kitchen, stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. This home is a fantastic get-a-way for a small family or any fisherman who wants to relax and enjoy the Island Breeze. The interior is brand new and beautifully decorated with a great tropical feel.

You don't have to be a fisherman to enjoy this great location. Located directly in the middle of the Keys, nothing seems to be too far away. Spend a night on Duval Street in Key West , watching the sunset at Mallory Square, go mini-golf at Boondocks, or go bowling just 45 minutes away. There are also many attractions in town that you couldn't experience anywhere else. Some people may be shocked to drive past a Turtle Hospital. Yes, we have one! Stop in for a unique and fun time. Experience our little piece of SeaWorld by visiting the Dolphin Research Center. You can tour the location and even swim with the dolphins. There are also national parks with kayaking and biking trails.

Another famous Marathon attraction is the historic Seven Mile Bridge, a place that comes alive at sunset. You will see families taking pictures of the beautiful view, couples taking a romantic stroll, or even individuals running and biking along the 2 mile strip. If you are lucky you may sometimes spot anything from sea turtles to Spotted Eagle Rays. Those who stay past sunset, especially tourist who are visiting from a larger city, city will be left speechless at the sight of the night sky. The stars are incredible and usually very visible on a clear night.

There are so many places to enjoy in the Keys and this home is the prefect place to start!

Beautiful Home in the perfect location

5 of 5

My husband and I along with another couple stayed at this home in February for an Anniversary adult only trip. The location is perfect and the home was beautiful. Everything was in great working order and Juli was great to work with! Both beds were very comfortable and the walk in shower in the master bath was spectacular! There are hidden gems within a short walk down a path onto city property that includes a dog park and kayak docks. The only con I can think of is that the light switches for outside are located in odd places however after a few minutes of a fun search, all was well. We would definitely stay here again!

Location

Activity and Interests

Marathon is the boating and family destination of the Florida Keys!!

This quaint tropical city is conveniently situated in the middle of the Keys island chain.

Located mainly on Vaca, Fat Deer, and Grassy Key, Marathon is a 10- mile-long family-oriented island community rooted in a heritage of fishing, and reflects the old-Keys lifestyle that residents, snowbirds and visitors enjoy so much.

It is maintaining this simple, seafaring tradition that has made Marathon so special, celebrated through the community's annual family-friendly seafood festivals.
